Hi James, Your website indicates you provide services that "just do not work" for email. It may be legally allowed but that does not mean your recipients want and expect those emails. E.g. co-registration. In my opinion, many of the companies I met that did that, just use it for "want to win an I

You are right. But there exist so many domain setups that are borken (IPv6 issues, backup MX that won't accept email, disk that are full, ...). Because email is complex for most. What was the reason you posted it here? You could 'reroute' the email to an IPv4 sending IP when pattern X is replied.
